After all, during Lin Xiuyuan's previous deduction, even he did not know the identity of the Slave who provided the lie to Li Zhitong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that the Slave had never provided Lin Xiuyuan with a lie from beginning to end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps this was the Slave's overarching scheme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, nobodies were still people; they too were flesh and blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a pity... Upon first entering The Eighteen Levels of Hell, a single misstep meant the entire board was lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran narrowed his eyes, exhaling the Cigarette smoke he didn't realize he had inhaled. He felt the cold, hard grip of the Liar-Slayer in his hand, though he had no memory of drawing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skill...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To use it, or not to use it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'If I do not use it: As long as Qiu Yinong and I carefully deal with the three Skills, the Five-Layer Interference might just trap and kill a few Players.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It seems...'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'There is still one thread of logic I haven't untangled.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Among the three Three-Star Players, the first to use a Skill was Long Hui. Before using it, did he consider whether his Skill would unravel the Deceiver's Tongue created by Lin Xiuyuan?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I believe he did consider it. This means that, to him, the benefits of unraveling the Deceiver's Tongue far outweighed the alternative.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Earlier, Diwu Zeyi mentioned that Long Hui's Deceiver's Tongue disgusted him.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Which proves that those two know each other.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Not good!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran glanced at his arm, only to see that the remaining time on the countdown was thirty-five seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qiu Yinong, check the countdown,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There seems to be something wrong with the time,\" she replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiu Yinong responded almost instantly. Both of them realized that the flow of time had accelerated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They completely failed to process the memory of this conversation. Both were stuck staring blankly at the timer, watching the numbers shift:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twenty-five seconds vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time Reset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2:59\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2:58\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'We are doomed...'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'During the previous reset, the countdown for Long Hui's Skill was six minutes. This time, it's three minutes.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'There are two possibilities.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'One: My brain failed to process the relevant memories from those missing three minutes and twenty-five seconds.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Two: While we were deducing the identity of the liar, Diwu Zeyi deduced the mechanics of the Secret Room. This weakened Long Hui's Skill, or perhaps he even seized control of it...'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'But the full-power form of Long Hui's Skill has a five-minute countdown. Why would it drop to three minutes after being taken over by Diwu Zeyi?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Skill level!!!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Could it be that after Silent Seal was seized by Diwu Zeyi, it was buffed by the sheer level of Emperor Emerges from the Three Rivers?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It seems there is no point in waiting any longer.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran reached for his waist, his expression darkening the moment his fingers brushed the Liar-Slayer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'My Skill...'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'What is it?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chilling dread welled up from the depths of his heart, washing over his entire body and rushing straight to his skull, making his scalp tingle with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could ponder any further, a shadow fell over his vision. He looked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Diwu Zeyi was standing right in front of him, having approached without a sound. With a beaming smile, he asked, \"Buddy, what is your name?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran opened his mouth to reply, but froze on the spot, his eyes wide with panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'My name...'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'What is it?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, he watched as Diwu Zeyi curled his lips into a smirk, slowly drew his Liar-Slayer, and pressed the muzzle squarely against his forehead...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Looking up at Diwu Zeyi was my first action. If I had answered him just now, that would have been the second.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Dorje's Turned Upside Down makes it impossible for me to register a second simultaneous action.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'So...'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Did I actually answer Diwu Zeyi's question just now or not?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Is he bluffing me, or did I subconsciously reply \"I don't know\" a moment ago?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Under Long Hui's Skill, failing to speak before the countdown ends erases a piece of the victim's Common Sense. I do not know who I am, nor do I know what my Skill is. This means the Common Sense erased here includes a Player's personal facts, such as their name, age, Skills, and so forth.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I have absolute faith in my own caution. Even if I forgot my name, I would never blurt out \"I don't know.\"'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'He is bluffing!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'How do I break this trap?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'That's it!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran turned his head and looked at his teammate. He opened his mouth but remained silent, effectively circumventing Dorje's Turned Upside Down before preparing to speak again...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'She is my teammate...'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'But what is her name?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Damn it! Did the countdown end again?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I even forgot my teammate's name. That means it is highly likely she doesn't remember the name of my Skill either.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Skill is called Liar-Slayer: Eternal Kingdom,\" an unknown voice shouted out. Chen Ran immediately reached for his Liar-Slayer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time seemed to skip. The very instant his fingers brushed the weapon, he suddenly found himself already aiming the Gun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Liar-Slayer: Eternal Kingdom.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang! Darkness descended alongside the gunshot, and the inside of the carriage fell into a dead silence. Common Sense was restored. Furthermore, because Dorje's Skill had been shattered, the memories everyone had previously failed to process flooded into their minds like a tidal wave, rapidly being digested by their brains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are quite hard to kill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the darkness, Diwu Zeyi murmured softly before returning to his seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others wore bizarre expressions. Within the newly digested memories, they realized that this bastard Diwu Zeyi had been constantly baiting Chen Ran into making a second action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had relentlessly interrogated him: What is your name? What is your Skill? What is your teammate's name? What is your teammate's Skill?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with such intense questioning, a normal person would subconsciously reply \"I don't know\". This behavior was an involuntary reflex, completely outside of conscious control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran, however, stubbornly refrained from answering a single one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was no longer a question of whether it was difficult or not; it was a testament to the absolute sheer strength of Chen Ran's psychological defenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the lights finally came back on, everyone felt as though they had just survived a catastrophe. Chen Ran, meanwhile, looked toward the direction of the voice that had reminded him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the lights finally came back on, everyone felt as though they had just survived a catastrophe. Chen Ran, meanwhile, looked toward the direction of the voice that had reminded him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need to thank me. After all, helping you is helping myself,\" the Energetic Young Guy, Cao Xiu, said as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Right. Cao Xiu is a temporary teammate. He only just learned about my Skill. The timeframe was too short for it to become a piece of his Common Sense.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'So it couldn't be erased!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran looked at the three Three-Star Players, who happened to be looking right back at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four pairs of eyes met.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them wore solemn expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the overarching death trap, the three Three-Star Players had used the Liar to set a snare for Chen Ran. While he was busy deducing, Diwu Zeyi independently solved the Secret Room and quietly seized control of Long Hui's Skill. Then, by using Emperor Emerges from the Three Rivers to elevate its tier, the hijacked Skill was drastically amplified. This caused everyone to unknowingly violate the Silent Seal, resulting in a large chunk of their Common Sense being erased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They then exploited the fact that Chen Ran had lost part of his Common Sense to execute a Lie-Judgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One intricate link followed another, perfectly interlocking into a flawless trap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Chen Ran hadn't been able to deduce the identity of the Liar, he wouldn't have been able to use his Skill. In that scenario, all seven Players present would have undoubtedly died!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, as time dragged on, they would have repeatedly triggered the Silent Seal, causing massive amounts of their Common Sense to be wiped clean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Is this a coordinated Skill combo?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'It's hard to imagine just how terrifyingly powerful, how utterly despair-inducing, a high-star squad would be when five Players perfectly synergized their Skills.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The retrospective analysis was over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ran turned his head and looked at the already deathly pale Lin Xiuyuan...\u003C\u002Fp>",1422,"2026-06-02T12:08:03.809Z",1,"novelbin.me","ab643dcd1f4f3d381915b67924f12d655625d4b960e08b94a4534810cb9a9939","the-eighteen-levels-of-hell-lying-is-forbidden-h-chapter-563","the-eighteen-levels-of-hell-lying-is-forbidden-h-chapter-562",621,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-eighteen-levels-of-hell-lying-is-forbidden-h-cover.jpg"]
